Condensed Milk and a Happy Patrilineal Family

Chinese advertisement for condensed milk in 1930 Singapore.

Although this advertisement from Singapore in 1930 states that everyone in the family (grandparents, son, daughter-in-law, and grandson) drinks this condensed milk, the text talks about how the grandfather remembers how delicious it was when he was young, the son remembers how it made him strong, and now the grandson is growing up on it as well. As for the women in the family. . . we’ll grandma looks happy, doesn’t she?
